Helping families with new, more affordable childcare options

Fine Gael is committed to helping families with new more affordable childcare options.

From September, childcare will become more affordable for families with a new, universal payment of up to €1,040 per year will for every child between 6 months and 3 years old that is in a registered childcare setting.

There’ll also be a range of other supports available to families.

That’s around 70,000 children and their families will benefit. To find out more, parents can log on to affordablechildcare.ie.
